Old water tower and greenhouse (Villa Augustus) (UF 158)

Europe, Netherlands, Zuid Holland, Dordrecht, Wantij, Villa Augustus, Hotel, Green house (slightly cut from all sides)

 

A dinner or lunch at the lovey hotel restaurant 'Villa Augustus' here always takes a bit longer ...one simply has to visit the vegatable garden (with its green houses) and mini-orchard and admire the architecture: the former water tower (the hotel, displayed here) (1883) and pumping station (the restaurant) (1933) of the former water purification facility of the municpality of Dordrecht. It's an excellent example of Industrial redevelopment.
